I like how Thomas Barrow’s apology/reconciliation language is offering tea and toast. This man has footmanisms embedded so deep he can no longer escape them, but he will gladly, without resentment, use his skills to serve the people he cares about.

#been thinking about that little hesitant proffer of toast #and how he poured baxter some tea once they finally became friends #also how he offered to buy everyone (Jimmy) a bottle of pop for the fair #and remembered to bring ms patmore her bottle of lemonade for the picnic #he might resent being in service #but he’s truly an acts of service lad #thomas barrow #downton abbey
